NEW!IEC 61951-2:2017 est disponible sous forme de IEC 61951-2:2017 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.L'IEC 61951-2:2017 spécifie le marquage, la désignation, les dimensions, les essais et les exigences applicables aux éléments et batteries d’accumulateurs parallélépipédiques, cylindriques et boutons, étanches, au nickel-métal hydrure, pouvant être utilisés dans toutes les orientations, pour applications portables. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente: - ajout du type de batterie; - ajout de la désignation ‘F’ (type à récupération élevée) pour les éléments et batteries; - ajout de la désignation ‘I’ (type à autodécharge faible) pour les éléments; - révision de la Figure 3 (6.1.3.1); - ajout de la note "picot facultatif" au contact positif; - modification de la position de la ligne de repère du picot aux surfaces planes du contact positif (B et G).

Sekundarni členi in baterije z alkalnimi ali drugimi nekislinskimi elektroliti - Sekundarni zatesnjeni členi in baterije za prenosne naprave - 2. del: Nikelj-kovinski hidrid

Standard IEC 61951-2:2011 določa označevanje, določanje, dimenzije, preskuse in zahteve za majhne posamezne prenosne ponovno polnljive hermetične nikelj-kovinske hidridne prizmatične, cilindrične in gumbaste celice, ki se uporabljajo pri vsaki orientaciji. Ta tretja izdaja razveljavlja in nadomešča drugo izdajo, objavljeno leta 2003, in predstavlja tehnično popravljeno izdajo. Ta izdaja vključuje naslednje pomembne tehnične spremembe glede na prejšnjo izdajo:  – točka 4: dodana sta 2 parametra;  – točka 5: dodane so celice tipa »S« in tipa »T«;  – podtočka 6.1.2: dodane so nove cilindrične celice;  – podtočka 7.8: dodan je poseben preskus za celice »S«.
